-LRB- CNN -RRB- -- Rocker and avid hunter Ted Nugent has agreed to pay a fine , serve probation and record a public service announcement as part of a deal to plead guilty to transporting an illegally killed black bear in Alaska , according to court documents .

The plea deal , filed Friday in U.S. District Court in Anchorage , Alaska , stems from federal allegations that arose during a bear hunt in May 2009 that was filmed for Nugent 's television show , `` Spirit of the Wild , '' on the Outdoor Channel .

News of the plea deal broke a day after Nugent was questioned and cleared by the Secret Service over comments he made at an annual meeting of the National Rifle Association where he said he would be `` dead or in jail '' if President Barack Obama were re-elected .

In the plea agreement , Nugent admitted to shooting and killing a bear using a bow and arrow during a hunt on Sukkwan Island in southeast Alaska , just days after he wounded another bear .

Alaska limits licensed hunters to the bagging of one bear per hunting season . Under the law , the wounding of a bear counts toward the season 's bag limit .

`` Nugent failed to locate and harvest the wounded bear , '' the plea agreement said .

Where the federal charge against Nugent -- a misdemeanor count of violating the Lacey Act -- comes in to play , according to court documents , is that he left the island by boat with the dead bear and `` knew or should have known , in the exercise of due care , that the black bear was taken , possessed or transported in violation of a law or regulation of the United States . ''

Neither the federal complaint nor the plea agreement revealed how federal authorities found out about the violation , though scenes from the hunt aired on Nugent 's show . Nugent nor his attorney , Wayne Anthony Ross , immediately responded to a CNN request for comment .

News of the plea deal comes as Nugent is promoting another bear hunt , this time in Quebec , Canada , on his web site .

As part of the plea deal , Nugent has agreed to pay a $ 10,000 fine , not to hunt or fish within Alaska or on any other U.S. Forest Service lands for one year . The deal also includes two years probation .

Additionally , according to the agreement , Nugent agreed to create a public service announcement that promotes the importance of a person 's responsibility in knowing the rules and regulations of their hunting activities .

The televised announcement , which must be approved by federal prosecutors in Alaska , must be at least 30 to 60 seconds in length and be broadcast every second week on his television show for one 12-month period , according to the plea agreement .

A federal judge still must sign off on the agreement .

Under federal sentencing guidelines , the maximum penalty is one year in prison and $ 100,000 fine .

Nugent 's attorney told the Anchorage Daily News on Friday that his client , who has previously hunted in the same area , was unaware of the law , which was introduced less than five years ago . He told the newspaper he watched the video clip from Nugent 's show and the arrow `` touched '' the bear and stuck in the ground .

`` There was n't any blood trail that they could find , '' Ross said . `` There was a little blood apparently at the spot , but nothing that indicated the bear was hard hit . ''

On Thursday , the Secret Service said it resolved questions regarding comments that Nugent , a conservative activist and gun rights advocate , made about President Obama during a speech at an NRA convention in St. Louis , Missouri .

`` If Barack Obama becomes the president in November again , I will either be dead or in jail by this time next year , '' Nugent said , according to a video that the NRA posted on YouTube . `` If you ca n't go home and get everybody in your lives to clean house in this vile , evil , America-hating administration , I do n't even know what you 're made out of . ''

The video has since been removed .

Many have questioned whether Nugent was alluding to violence against the president .

Earlier Thursday , Nugent issued a statement confirming his meeting and describing it as a `` good , solid , professional meeting concluding that I have never made any threats of violence towards anyone . The meeting could not have gone better . I thanked them for their service , we shook hands and went about our business . God bless the good federal agents wherever they may be . ''

Nugent , the self-styled `` Motor City Madman , '' gained musical fame in the 1960s as a member of the psychedelic band The Amboy Dukes , then as a solo act in the 1970s and later as a member of the 1980s supergroup Damn Yankees . He is probably best known for the1977 rock anthem , `` Cat Scratch Fever . ''
